Glad that helped but beware: changing /usr/bin/python is not 
recommended.  That link (and everything else in /usr/bin) is maintained 
by Apple and should always point to the OSX-supplied python at
/System/Library/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/bin/python

By default, the python.org installers create links at 
/usr/local/bin/python and /usr/local/bin/python2.6; use one of those 
paths to get to the python.org 2.6 or ensure /usr/local/bin comes before 
/usr/bin on your $PATH.
